SONY confirms no JB for 2011 handsets

http://www.xperiablog.net/2012/10/1...-2011-xperia-devices-will-not-get-jelly-bean/

That's so sad read!

The english muffins most always to get something:
through this heartache before when a Sony Mobile UK employee said that these devices wouldn’t get Android 4.1.

I think there is still no ICS for the first Galaxy S... Petition is pointless

galaxy s had no better hardware.
We have that much.
the xperia j is a low end phone than arc s but it is getting jelly bean

They're not testing on the arc! That was a hoax - someone used a custom ROM (based on 431 f/w which kind of gave it away) with the Android version hard-coded to 4.2. They visited a few Android sites and waited for people to spot it.

I hope they will fix ICS to be smooth like GB i don't care about 4.1 JB.JB is nearly like ICS just some more addons,so...
I just hope they fix ICS 'cause i'm not happy with it,it's laggy,camera lags,it's not that stable.So at least give us a proper ICS if not JB.

Goodbye Sony
I was planning to buy Xperia T but when I see their approach to the customers, probably I'll move to another brand. I think that all 2012 Xperia phones get update to 4.1 sometime in 2013 and it will be the last update for them - same as now for 2011 Xperia phones which got only one important update - GB -> ICS.

Yeah.
When i bought my first phone it was ericsson,then sony ericsson and i loved those phones,but sony ericsson sucks at updating firmwares.I'm thinking my next phone will be other brand no more sony if they continue giving us updates like ICS.But is still hope and think they will give us one more update,wich will fix most of bugs.Still hoping.

This sucks! ICS is a real battery drainer and more laggy than GB.. only reason I don't use GB is because the sound lags when running through Bluetooth speakers.

[RUMOR] Xperia S JB update comes in May

I'm far from making any false sensations. Maybe only branded version comes in may, maybe not. We'll see.

Enough with these rumors, it'll come when it'll come. Otherwise it's setting people up for disappointments.

It is not confirmed that Xperia s jellybean update will come to everyone in may,for example the galaxy note is updated in some countries but according to this carrier the jb update for galaxy note is expected to release in may

Please take closer look on the table with Sony...
Xperia S 6.1.A.2.45 - v. 17 Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean)
6.1.a.2.45 is ICS!!
WE CANNOT BE SURE THERE IS MISMATCH WITH SW VERSION OR ANDROID VERSION!

I guess that is software version of current sw and that is planned to upgrade to JB in week 17. I bought phone in Sweden and 6.1.A.2.45 is latest software for that country.

I really do like Sony products (my Xperia S will be a solid phone for a few years atleast), but the way Sony is releasing updates to our phone is just sad. It's not like Samsung which has gazillions of phones and i would image they'd have some problems in releasing updates in time for all their models.
Good thing that community is ahead and has a lot of 4.1 ROMs and a few based on 4.2. +1 for xda devs :victory:

Another speculation/rumor thread? With all due respect this is ridiculous. An admin clearly stated that these (future) threads are to be locked

New Xperia S update coming in the form of 6.2.B.1.XX

Good news
Back in June, we reported of a new Sony Xperia S (LT26i) firmware update that was rumoured to arrive in early July. Well obviously that did not come to pass, but apparently a new update is still on the agenda for Xperia S/SL owners. Sony pretty much confirmed as much on the official support forums, saying that it will have build version number 6.2.B.1.XX. There’s no ETA for the update, but we’ll keep our eyes peeled.

Sure they will...most of Xperia S users only think that Sony will only fix the problems in their phone (Xperia S) only because they (Sony) did reply and respond inside SXS forum...talk about typical Xperia S user that think of their own importance and forget about the others (Xperia SL,Acro S and ion)...

This update will well be the last update we are gonna be receiving.. Since Qualcomm have stopped work for S3 chipset devices.. We won't be getting official 4.2.2.. Same case like HTC One S.. Sad that Qualcomm too rejecting the good handsets.. Damn these companies..!!!!

Thanks for understanding.
And yes, this is keeping me away from flashing PROPER Custom ROMs, which means that some people (incl. me) will have to stick to 4.1.2 forever...
Envoyé depuis mon ONDA MID en utilisant Tapatalk 4 Beta

I actually prefer 4.1 ROMs on xs coz they're much more stable compared to 4.2. I have had battery issues with 4.2 ROMs on xs. Hope Sony release a faster, more stable and more efficient 4.1 rather than 4.2. Lets not forget xs runs on over 2 year old cpu.

[OT]My Wildfire S runs with CM10.1 nearly better than with Stock 2.3.5. But let's not forget it has a CPU that was already 2-3 years old when it was released (ARMv6 generation). [/OT]
Just saying...

But bro, if they give an update to 4.2.2, custom roms will obviously come good.. Atleast if they release sources, that would help devs to build a stable one soon.. But they don't.. And obviously i would choose custom rom over stock anytime.. And what XSP ROM(ported HTC) are u talkin bout bro??

Is a new update 10.3.1.A.2.74 coming?

It seems like a new update is coming to XZ. It may land on ZL as well in few days. It seems like a very minor update.

Going by what I THINK he meant though... (and how Sony's been rolling stuff out)
We'll probably see 4.4 out for one of the 65xx devices within the next 2 weeks... but the remainder (and all their different language iterations) will probably roll within the next 6 weeks...
Note this is just my guess... I reserve the right to be (and probably am) wrong...

I think it'll probably roll out in the last week of May.
For Indian users like me, probably First week of June

I think it'll probably roll out tuesday
That if they decide to launch .227 version and if we are lucky :laugh:
